framebuffer-enabled replacement for getty

qingy (Qingy Is Not GettY) is a replacement for getty that uses DirectFB to provide a fast, nice GUI without the overhead of the X Window System. It allows the user to log in and start the session of his choice (text console, GNOME, KDE, WMaker, ...). Main features: - It works ;-) - It remembers last user who logged in, with focus on password - It also rememebers last session each user chose - Alternatively it remembers last session on a per-tty basis - Fully themable - A theme will look the same on all machines, independently of the resolution - You can select your favourite theme, or a random one every time - Both text and X sessions are supported - You can start more that one X session at once - You can even start X inside a console when X sessions are already running - PAM support - Support for screen savers - Auto log-in support - Session locking support - tty specific options support - Customizable key bindings - Text mode support.
